Benefits of technology

This patent introduces a new type of cryptographic key infrastructure called a Relational Key Infrastructure (RKI) which allows for the creation of arbitrary entities and the elimination of fixed architecture in existing public key infrastructure (PKI) systems. The invention also provides a new state of the art methodology for extending RKI techniques into a truly generalized framework capable of operating at exceptional levels of authenticity without the need for roots, certificate authorities, or other static points in an infrastructure. The invention allows for a new digital foundation of authenticity, trust, and privacy that will fuel the emergence of highly resilient digital property ownership. Overall, the invention improves blockchain techniques and makes them more palatable choices for system integration.

Problems solved by technology

These concepts use the same policy syntax used for renewal and control to introduce systems wherein entities are given numerous configuration choices, unlocking fruitful complexity unattainable in existing systems.

Embodiment Construction

[0034]Preferred embodiments of the present invention and their advantages may be understood by referring to FIGS. 1-21, wherein like reference numerals refer to like elements. There are numerous embodiments of the present invention. Some implementations may integrate with existing public key infrastructure (PKI) systems.

[0035]The present invention builds upon the Entity Network Translation (ENT) concept disclosed in co-pending, parent U.S. patent application Ser. No. 14 / 075,486 (“the '486 application”), the entire disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein. ENT techniques are applicable to existing PKI principals of authenticity and identification through applied cryptography. These principals are vital to digital systems, as identity is a foundational building block of any sophisticated system.

[0036]The present invention introduces a cryptographic key infrastructure designated as a Relational Key Infrastructure (RKI). RKI allows arbitrary entities to be created, form r...

Abstract

Generalized Entity Network Translation provides new state of the art methodology for extending RKI techniques into a truly generalized framework capable of operating at exceptional levels of authenticity without the need for roots, certificate authorities, or other static points in an infrastructure. More astounding is its ability to create trusted authentic entity relationships that require no externally stored state outside of the shared context between discrete peers. The present invention provides, among other things, novel improvements to blockchain-derived systems and provides strong proof of ownership, renewal, roll-backs, and localized state and many blockchain systems more palatable choices for system integration.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]The present application is a continuation-in-part application of and claims priority to U.S. patent application Ser. No. 14 / 075,486, filed on Nov. 8, 2013, and entitled “Entity Network Translation (ENT),” the entire disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein. The present application also claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 971,441, filed on Mar. 27, 2014, and entitled “Generalized Entity Network Translation,” the entire disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of Invention[0003]The present invention relates to applied cryptography and more specifically, to digital certificates for identifying and authenticating abstract identities of persons, entities, and electronic devices. Further, this invention leverages these basic building blocks to address architectural designs of large distributed systems.[0004]2. Description of Related Art[0005]Blockch...
